Study Objective |
To describe human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccination practice among adolescent girls with cystic fibrosis (CF) and to identify reasons for non-vaccination.
Design |
Cross-sectional multicentric study.
Setting and Participants |
Girls aged 9-17 years, attending 7 French pediatric CF centers, and their accompanying adult.
Interventions |
Administration of a self-report questionnaire.
Main Outcome Measures |
The proportion of girls having received or receiving HPV vaccination, compliance with the vaccination schedule, factors associated with vaccination, and reasons for vaccination and for non-vaccination.
Results |
A total of 113 girls and 104 accompanying adults participated. The mean age was 13.6 years (standard deviation 2.5; range 9-17). A total of 34 (30.9%) patients reported having received HPV vaccination. Among the 34 girls aged 15 years or older, 15 (44.1%) were vaccinated. Most patients (58.8%) started vaccination between 11 and 14 years of age (mean age 13.9). Most vaccine prescriptions (67.6%) were made by a CF center health care provider. Factors associated with vaccination were older age (odds ratio [OR] = 1.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01-1.6, P = .037 for each year older), previous vaccination by the accompanying parent of one of their children for hepatitis B (OR = 8.01, 95% CI = 0.96-67.02), P = .055), and parental influence on decision-making (OR = 2.77, 95% CI = 0.97-7.95, P = .058). Health care providers’ positive advice and fear of HPV-related disease were the main reasons given to justify vaccination decisions. Insufficient knowledge and concerns about potential side effects were the main barriers.
Conclusion |
HPV vaccination remains insufficient among girls with CF. CF health care providers may play a crucial role in HPV vaccination acceptance, and their sensitization to cervical cancer prevention is mandatory.
